How to extend your prepaid plan by 365 days

Keeping your ALDI Mobile service active doesn't need to be complicated. With just one simple recharge, you can extend your service validity by a full 365 days. Here's how to do it.

Understanding service expiry

When you first activate an ALDI Mobile SIM card, your service has a limited validity period:

  • New $2 SIM Starter Packs expire after 10 days if not recharged
  • The discontinued $5 PAYG Starter Pack included $5 credit that expires after 60 days

Once this initial period ends, your service will deactivate unless you take action.

How to get 365 days of service

There are two straightforward ways to extend your service by a full 365 days:

Option 1: Top up with PAYG credit

Adding PAYG credit is the simplest way to extend your service validity. PAYG credit is available in three denominations:

  • $15 PAYG Top Up
  • $25 PAYG Top Up
  • $35 PAYG Top Up

Any of these options will extend your service by 365 days from the date of recharge.

Option 2: Add a Mobile, Data or Family Plan

Alternatively, you can add any of our current plans to your service. While most plans have a 30-day expiry, the recharge itself will extend your service validity by 365 days.

For maximum convenience, consider our Long Life Mobile Plans, which provide both plan inclusions and service validity for a full year.

Where to recharge

You can extend your service through any of these channels:

Set and forget with Auto Recharge

To avoid manually extending your service, enable Auto Recharge when selecting a plan. Your service will automatically recharge at each plan expiry interval, ensuring continuous service without the need to log in and recharge manually.

Important reminders

  • Always recharge before your service expires to maintain your mobile number
  • If you're on a plan with data rollover, recharge within 24 hours of expiry to keep your unused data
  • Check your expiry date anytime by logging into My ALDI Mobile, using the app, or texting 'balance' to 590

With these simple steps, you can keep your ALDI Mobile service active for 365 days at a time, ensuring you stay connected without interruption.
